what brand is that steamer because the one i bought is a piece of shit.

[dezertpyrot1122]

euro pro shark steamer. i don't think they have this model any more i searched every where ebay and even with the maker.

[THATISFAKE]

you know the hair that is in the black colour? do you backcomb that hair too? Because i have had problem with doing that kind of dreads, the hair that i steam with two colours easily gets up and gets messu QUICKLY! Do you have any tip? I use a hairdryer to make my, is a steamer better?

[dezertpyrot1122]

i back comb both colors before steaming. back comb them seperatly. i find the steam minipulates 100% Kane kolan fibers better than plain dry heat. Some people even use boiling water.

Hello, I wanted to know what you used for the head of your steamer? Did it come with the steamer or can you buy one like yours, I have a pointed end can you buy one to fit it?

[dezertpyrot1122]

it came with the steamer. it is like a washclothe material that streteches around a triangle hose bit. it helps i think.

You are so super edgy, I could just shit.

I've also seen people use a damp cloth and a flat iron,

they placed the cloth over the dread fall,then use the flat iron over it and it will steam it.

Sorry im bad at explaining :P

GORILLAZ WOOOO! Song at the end. Lovely dread

I'm wondering about the steamer as well. I've been looking for one that has an attachment like that for the tip, and I can't seem to find one anywhere.

what kind of steamer do you use and where did you get it? all the ones im finding are hella expensive and i dont like using my straightener to seal my dreads :(

[Antikia]

Then you're probably not doing it right, I do that too and it's really quick for me. You know you only need to steam it for like 5-10 seconds right? Atleast if you got a decent iron. With a normal length dread and a normal width iron you should be able to do the whole dread in 3 'steams'

i have a video and shows a few methods. i use boiling water at first but it didnt like it! i took a tub of warm water or room temp then dip the rag into it and rug the rag out but not all the way then place it over the dread and put my flat iron over it to steam it. the only thing is the rag drys out quick so you gotta redip. its a smilpe way. i do hair so i got flatiorns laying around everywhere. try it it works great!

Yes, I'm currently doing that but it takes forever.

Does Backcombing work with a normal comb?

Plus, I wonder if I could seal these with a steam iron and a damp cloth......

[iamtheage]
